A beautiful Italian countryside venue with fabulous food!

I really want to take the time to share the incredible experience myself and my new husband had getting married at San Pietro this July, 2023. I would honestly recommend it to any brides looking for a destination wedding! It was so dreamy more beautiful than I could have imagined.

We are from London, UK and dreamed of an Italian countryside wedding weekend with all of our nearest and dearest. We were 56 in total, and wanted to have an exclusive venue, with only our guests on-site. We did a welcome pizza party Friday, the wedding Saturday and then a pool party bbq on the Sunday. The venue absolutely delivered on all of our requirements.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, it’s extremely peaceful, filled with birdsong and greenery. There is also so much history and art which adds to the uniqueness and prettiness of the venue. There are so many beautiful locations to make use of; the cloisters, the rose garden, the park (with amazing mountain views), the pool area (with toilets and changing rooms), and more! This made it great for hosting the guests in new and different locations all weekend. Plus so many locations for photo opportunities: The steps leading to the pool covered with flower arches was my personal favourite! Also the lighting in the hallways overlooking the cloisters was gorgeous! Every part of the venue was well nurtured and looked after. We made use of the spa with the bridesmaids and groomsmen on the morning of the wedding and it was the perfect way to unwind ahead of a busy day! We all felt very pampered!

The food was absolutely fabulous, and so plentiful! We are huge foodies so wanted to make sure our guests were well-fed with good food. San Pietro exceeded our expectations! We had the freshest oysters served during the aperitif, and the most tender veal sirloin served with dinner, I don’t think I have seen wedding food done so well and all our guests were raving about it! It’s obvious that the team work really hard on ensuring high quality menus with fresh and local produce! We had lots of dietary requirements to cater for but this was not a problem for the San Pietro kitchen, who gave our guests really lovely alternatives and made them feel included.

The venue’s wedding coordinator (Sara) was amazingly helpful, she did everything in her power to execute on our vision, and contributed great ideas! She was so responsive though-out, and we never had any doubts because she made us so comfortable. I am so grateful for all the staff for the impeccable service, and being so adaptable! We happened to get married during a big storm in Perugia and I will never get over how much Sara, Diego and team supported us with meticulous re-planning to make the day as perfect as possible! Luckily the venue is beautiful inside and out, with lots of sheltered options indoors which are equally as beautiful, so the weather didn’t take away from the day! Honestly, we were so glad to share our special day with all the venue staff, we really got to know them well over time.

San Pietro were able to sleep 36 of our guests on-site, and provide nearby accomodation recommendations as well as organised transfers for all of those staying offsite, so the coordination of guests arriving on time for events was perfect and simple.

We also worked with a celebrant recommended by the venue and he made all of the legalities really straightforward and easy to manage, so we were able to legally get married in a civil ceremony. But I also understand there are options for a religious ceremony in the lovely chapel.

Overall this venue was the best decision we ever made with regards to wedding planning. We intend to come and visit as often as we can.

If any upcoming brides or grooms would like to speak to us directly about our experience then we are more than happy to share, any excuse to talk about how fantastic it was!

Location magica...

Una location che sceglierei 1000 e 1000 volte ancora.... Abbiamo scelto questo meraviglioso posto per il nostro matrimonio, abbiamo provato sensazione meravigliose subito appena arrivati e sono state confermate passo dopo passo nella scelta di ogni cosa. Il personale professionale, educato, premuroso e ti fanno sentire veramente in famiglia. Il cibo è tutto di un livello altissimo in particolare la torta nuziale, i nostri invitati ancora né parlano. La cura per i dettagli è strabiliante non so come altro descrivere il tutto se non con pura magia. Non smetterò mai di ringraziarli per tutto quello che hanno fatto per noi. Il nostro giorno più importante non poteva essere così perfetto neanche se lo avessimo dipinto! Lo consigliamo senza ombra di dubbio!

Splendid Experience

San Pietro Sopra Le Acque is simply THE PLACE for for a fantastic and special wedding. The venue is outstanding, the landscape surrounding the resort is breathtaking. The facility is very well organized and classy, the park and the rose garden are just the perfect additions to create a fairytale.
The organization of our wedding was perfect. The staff is very professional, easy to work with, always available and happy to walk us through any detail, no matter how small. They were able to accommodate all of our needs and to host amazingly 150 guests. The bottom line is, they executed flawlessly the all event, from the welcoming guest, to the ceremony, to the dinner and all event management. Special shout out to the Event Planner Sara Posati which fondly assisted us in everything we needed. Big kudos to the chef and his team for the exceptional food typical of Umbria region. We have been getting non- stop compliments from our friends and families about how awesome they wedding was. Can’ t thank San Pietro Sopra Le Acque Team enough!

Perfect Wedding

Getting married in San Pietro Sopra le Acque was a dream come true. I am Brazilian and my husband is German. We had a very particular way in which we wanted our wedding to be done, so that it would reflect voth our cultures. In San Pietro they made this possible. They also indicated all the services (music, photography, decoration, catering, etc) to make our planning easier. The wedding venue is perfect. It is big and there is place for people to spend the night, which makes the wedding experience even better.
We had the best days of our lives their.
Regarding prices, we searched a lot before deciding on the venue and in the end we could see that they had the best cost/ benefit for the wedding we wanted (about 100 people). Also, they are very organized and send you all information and costs detailed. So there are no surprises in the end. Weddings are never cheap, but it was definitely worth every cent.
Sara who works in the managment department was so helpful. She participated in many meetings with us and did everything that was in her power to make our day perfect. And it was.

La perfezione racchiusa in una serata

Quando penso al giorno più bello e felice di quest'anno mi viene in mente solo il 21 agosto ovvero il giorno del mio matrimonio. La prima volta che ho visitato il San Pietro sopra le acque Resort avevo 14 anni e sono rimasto così colpito dalla location che mi dissi "quando mi sposerò voglio sposarmi qui".Premetto che sono del settore e sono molto critico se c'è qualcosa che non va comunicando tutto subito a chi di dovere ma quella sera non sono riuscito a trovare nemmeno un difetto. Location che toglie il fiato, immersi nel verde con il prato e il bosco fiabesco nel quale fare delle foto stupende, cibo davvero ottimo con tanta attenzione nella materia prima e con tante varietà di scelta sopratutto con molta attenzione per chi ha allergie. Il servizio in sala perfetto, sempre al servizio del cliente. La nostra organizzatrice per l'evento, ovvero Sara, ci è stata sempre vicino passo passo con pazienza, eleganza e classe, consigliandoci sempre al meglio ma senza esporsi troppo in modo da lasciare sempre libera scelta al cliente. In location hanno anche differenti partners con il quale lavorano da anni, come noi abbiamo scelto gli addobbi floreali curati da Michela che si è presa sempre cura di noi rendendo il posto, gia bello di suo, in un opera d'arte.
Credo che moltissimi altri "colleghi" debbano prendere spunto dal San Pietro sopra le acque Resort per capire davvero fino in fondo il senso dell'ospitalità. Un giorno indimenticabile, grazie infinite a tutti per aver reso quel giorno, un giorno davvero perfetto.

The wedding of our dreams

Choose San Pietro Resort and you’ll have a wedding you will never forget. My wife and I have friends all over Italy and we now live in Canada, therefore we needed a venue which would allows us to host people for multiple days. Today I can say that San Pietro was the perfect choice. A 1600 beautifully renovated monastery with incredibly beautiful rooms and lots of space outside. The amazing aspects of this venue which makes it a 5+ stars for weddings are: its structure and the staff. Being so wide and with so many different spaces we could host and show our guests different parts of the venue throughout the weekend (the pool, the cloister, etc) and keep the main part only for the main wedding reception. The fact that the venue has a also a church is priceless. It is beautiful, with original paintings inside and can comfortably fit more than 80 people. Last but not least the staff, starting with Diego and Sara who guided us through the organization, going to every single waiter, the custodian, and the cleaning ladies, the staff of San Pietro resort is absolutely awesome. They are efficient, quick, welcoming but most importantly the always smile! I strongly suggest everyone to check out this beautiful corner of Umbria, and to secure it for your wedding. You will never ever forget it.
